HUD Secretary Fudge Visit to Jacksonville: Progress and Opportunities in Affordable Housing
The primary goal of Secretary Fudge's recent visit to Jacksonville, Florida, was to witness the improvement in the quality of life for the residents who receive HUD rental assistance. She wanted to see firsthand the services that HUD grantees provide for the homeless and personally listen to housing concerns and challenges faced by low-income residents. The first stop was Sulzbacher Village, which provides comprehensive homeless services for children and families and works with more than 30 partner organizations that complement each other. A round table ensued to address housing challenges currently impacting Florida. The conversation included state and local elected officials, community leaders, and representatives from organizations providing supportive service. The Secretary also engaged in conversation with residents from privately-owned properties that have rental assistance contracts with HUD. This served as an opportunity to hear the connection to the Department's initiatives, policies, and enforcement efforts in their daily lives. The last stop was Hilltop Village where Secretary Fudge listened to the residents sharing their experience with the improvements made to the property and the impact in their quality of life. ### |
